COMMERCE - East Jackson's C.J. Allen returned the opening kick off 95 yards for a touchdown and the Eagles never looked back in taking a key 48-20, Region 8-AA win over Riverside Military Academy Friday night.

Allen was a one-man wrecking crew for East Jackson (5-0, 4-0 in region) rushing for 85 yards and two touchdowns and adding a 55-yard reception for a touchdown as the Eagles set a new school-record for wins in a season.

The Eagles came into the game averaging 43 points a game and did not disappoint the fans who had come looking for another offensive show.

East Jackson jumped out to a quick 21-0 lead in the first quarter and Riverside (2-2, 2-3) never recovered. Riverside, which has now lost two straight region games, cut the lead to 21-7 by halftime but East Jackson used a 21-point third quarter to extend its lead.

Deon Sewell added 82 yards rushing and one touchdown and Tyler Collins had 74 yards and one touchdown for East Jackson. Evan Williamson was 2-of-6 passing for 68 yards and one touchdown.
